I don't think y'all truly grasp how insane it is to have a generational actor like Robert Pattinson playing a superhero, & Batman at that. And a phenomenal filmmaker like Matt Reeves writing his character, truly absurd shit

People clowned Robert Pattinson as “the Twilight guy” when he was announced as Batman, but now the silence is loud.
Which actor seemed miscast in a role but ended up killing it?

All of life is whispering the same thing: Let go. Let go of control, of identity, of the story. What you are will not be lost. Only the illusion will dissolve.

I probably quote this in my mind once a week at least, most recently, yesterday. If aliens were to ask me for an example of what Hip-hop is, I would play them this song.

The dissolution of the tight knot of ego doesn’t necessarily happen in one fell swoop. It is more likely to be a gradual process of unfoldment—a weaving in and out of the open spaciousness of being and an often indiscernible erosion of resistance to what is.

We live thus: the Mind-sword way. Codified in every breath. Are your friends versed in the way? Or did they get lost on the way? Heed the call, warrior-poets: mindful (s)wordplay, without (s)words.

The movement of your mind is not the problem—clinging to it, believing it defines you, is where suffering begins.

7 months later, they’re still promoting the album. Connections, money, of course they matter. But more than anything, you must be dedicated and you must care.

Awakening may not be a sudden breakthrough or a mystical event. It might be the gentle undoing of illusion over time, until only the clarity of being remains.
